DVD with auto installing player...how??

[bacardi/avt]

I have been doing DVDs for some time now but there has always been one thing that I did not seam to find any info on. How to do a DVD that will install a player if the disc was put into a computer?

The perfect scenario would be that it did not install itself on the hard drive but still could play the DVD-video, maybe install itself onto a RAMdiisc and run from there.

So does this dream software exist? and if so, where can I find it?

The closest thing to that I have seen is in Ulead DVD Workshop which gives you the option of including there DVD player on the disc when you author it. I've never tried it so have no idea how well it works. I would assume it would require you ti install it on the system.

@akrako1:

My bad, I did a search and found those treads myself but I did not read all. It works fine with Mplayer autorun.inf except that I can't get it to play MPEG-Audio...but I will hopefully get it right soon.

Thanx for the link akrako1
